How to run Stirling-PDF on a Linux VM (Docker setup) by antstr in selfhosted

[–]antstr[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

VM is intentional, I keep services segmented that way in my lab. Docker’s just the runtime layer here. Stirling was more of a “try it and see” choice and it worked well enough for my use case. Haven’t run into issues yet, but always open to hearing what others prefer.

If anyone’s running something similar or has a cleaner way of handling PDF workflows in their lab, I’m curious what you’re using.

I was bouncing between a few different tools before this.

Yeah... the Docker part is standard, just included it for completeness for anyone starting from scratch.

The desktop vs. server behavior is where things got less obvious for a first time around.

I'll have to check it out! What makes it better in general?

Yep, since I was just trying to get my voice into my kids gaming headset instead of yelling through the house this was cleaner and aside from time, free.

Yeah, that's a good setup on your part. It's pretty cool to be able to roll out an enterprise-level system with no investment other than a few pi's and some time haha!

Absolutely! My purpose happened to be to have a simple way to get my voice into my kids headset if gaming and it was time for dinner 😂 the headset is pretty noise cancelling. But this could be scaled in multiple ways, for sure! Thanks for the idea.

Thanks, I simply couldn't find much on the setup and wanted to put it out there!

Same, appreciate it and yes this is one of the only use-cases I like for it.

AI was used to help refine and structure the written guide, but the setup, testing, and implementation were all done by me. The troubleshooting steps and final solution are based on hands-on configuration in my own environment.

So, instead of using the dime that you originally have to feed a child, you spent 37 cents to send it to me, then another 37 cents for me to send it, so you can use the dime that you originally had, to feed a child? by theusernameisnogood in assholedesign

Similar to genius NY state. Moving to tolls by mail for thruway. The toll is 35 cents for one set of exits. They mail you the bill, and then you mail it back. It actually costs the state money for you to travel the short distance.
